Another reminder that a SF Sinister Picnic/Meet is set for Sunday, May
24th @ 12 Noon in Golden Gate Park, "hippy hill". We'll be hanging out
for a couple of hours, so swing by when you can. Family, friends,
lovers, pets invited.
Directions are below. You will know us by the bright orange and yellow
picnic basket Brian is bringing, and hopefully we'll have a
ghettoblaster (hehe I always wanted to use that word) kicking out the
B&S jams.
Bring along any games if you please, but there *is* a playground nearby
I understand....
Food-wise, salads, drinks and chips are good ideas. Extra points for
bringing dessert.
Should you require further information before the picnic time, feel free
to contact either
myself at (415) 285-1805
or Brian at (415) 292-2342
or e-mail me at the following address: Nicola4230(a)aol.com
Directions
******
facing gg park from the tip of haight, hippy hill is in the front to the
left side right next to the big childrens playground. on sundays there
is
a large impromtu-ish drum circle and people play ball and frisbee and
lounge on colorful spring blankets and dance and kiss the sun.
Weather
****
52°... 68°F
Mild, More clouds than sun (better than today!)
I'll be the brunette, shoulder-length hair, tan complexion, 5'5, 110, do
say hi if you see me! possibly in my union jack tank top in a show of
solidarity to our English brethren. Oh yes.
see you there!

Reminds me of a shit playground joke:
1: "Have you got hair?"
2: "Yes."
1: "Have you got a back?"
2: "Yes"
1: "Have you got a side?"
2: "Yes"
1: "Haha! You've got a hairy backside!"
Almost as funny as the Pea Soup gag

I think that describing us as "human"s would challenge Darwin's theories a
smidge.

Napier Uni does various meejah courses, but it's a bad idea doing it in
Edinburgh, as there's piss-all media interest bar The Scotsman and the
Edinburgh Evening News. Better doing a course near to London. My
sister's doing one at West Kent College in Tonbridge, which she reckons is
pretty damn good.

I've been wondering this too. I listened to an old tape, and the
"house-sharing" sketch is still as funny as I remember it being five years
ago... possibly funnier, since I've now actually lived like a student, and
really know the meaning of the phrase "Hey look, it's only a sausage."
His last two novels have been pretty lame, too.
Still, at least Alexei Sayle's new series is well up to his usual
standards. (I can say this, cause Peter isnae around to do his Bobby
Charriot impression :)

You think you've got problems? I've got to learn to drive *and* pass my
test between 20th June and 17th August. That's going to be a total
fucking barrel of laughs.

Yes, but only in a parallel universe.

I'm stuck with Voulez Vous at the moment. But not the Abba version. The
version Alan Partridge did, where he over emphasizes the "Aha" bits.
Voulez vooooooo AHA take it now or leave AHA now is all you get AHA

Fave T-shirt at the moment. Plain white with "SUBLIMINAL MESSAGE" on it
in black letters. Until it goes under a UV light, when the words "HERION
MINDFUCK" mysteriously appear.

3, 6, 9 seconds of light surely refers to exposure time in a camera or under
an enlarger. This I gather by the story of the photograph inside the CD case,
as well as the picture of the old fashioned light meter on the actual CD.
Probably time under an enlarger. That would be a long exposure in a camera.
Well... unless it were one of those night time city lights pictures that you
take by putting your camera on the tripod and opening the shutter with a cable
release. Then the 3, 6, and 9 could refer to bracketed shots-- one exposure
at each time. Whatever. I've never been able to do timed exposures very
well, and my camera even has a cool timer inside of it.
I was speaking with someone about this a while ago, a B&S photography
connection... Ink Polaroids, Photo Jenny, etc. etc.
I have to go to work now (at a photography studio, conveniently enough!).
XOXO,
Kristen

Someone asked about the meaning"tigermilk", maybe you could tell me, to
what does the title "3...6...9 Seconds of Light" refer? It's probably
something really obvious that everyone knows about, except me, sort of
like the milky biscuit thing a couple of months ago when i didn't know
what anyone was talking about.
<<Come to think of it i don't know if it is the seagulls, i'm just
guessing from the fishy flavour of their... what's the proper word for
birdshit?>>
Flavour?
I love the way the british swear, arse shite bloody bollocks etc etc
pish. All the kids round here can do is "hella", "the music is that club
was hella loud, man!" not as fun, but if I use the Brit terms then it
sounds pretentious, or just wrong.
Who is Jimmy Tarbuck?
I went to a Bjork concert last night, and standing just a few feet away
from me was this guy from Metallica, James something. So i debated,
should I meet him or get autograph, although i think his band is crap,
just for the hell of it? but he looked kinda scary so nevermind.
well I am extremely, make that *EXTREMELY* hung over and supposed to be
working anyway, so bye.

Sorry everyone for the evil misuse of the list but is anyone from down south
(eg London) going to see The V*rve on Sunday? Because My mate's won tickets
and we need a lift...private e mails please...please?
Actually, this isn't such an evil e mail as it gives me the chance to tell you
that I will be bringing my Casio to Primrose Hill on Monday, and If someone
else brings one we can have a little electronic orchestra...all together now,

I would just like to say that someone here at work was listening to a mix
tape and the song "Lazy Line Painter Jane" came on. I actually hopped up
out of my chair and starting dancing around and singing along, I was so
happy. Now the lovely people I work with are used to me being a bit
strange (during the job interview I believe I told them about how I love
bees, and my desk and computer are covered with bee stickers, little
stuffed bees, bee stamps, a jar of honey, etc.), and they're pretty
tolerant of my Belle and Sebastian obsession (I do play them almost every
day here), but my boss just emerged from his office, gave me a strange look
and then told me to calm down. He also asked me if I sang in my band and
said there's a reason I don't :( anyway.... I AM so excited about the new
B&S album that I have to just not think about it or I will simply explode.
